My dining room table has been discolored by the sun. What can I do to even the color out?

Stumped!! asked:


Help! My dining room is on the east side of the house and although I keep the blinds closed until close to 1:00 p.m. every day, apparently enough light got in to discolor my table. I just took my runner off to change to a new one and I have a nice, long, 12″ wide several shades lighter streak running the whole length of my 96″ table where the sun apparently darkened the part showing.

Is there anything I can do to either speed up the darkening of the center, or polish it out so that it blends?

I am just sick about this - the table is only two months old.

    For sun the table in an inconspicuous spot like an edge and rub that full body tan.
    Table had gloss finish of the finish of the whole table had gloss finish of the finish on it that it does would try some automotive rubbing compound and see it will assume that it that full body tan.
    For sun bleaching you did not say whether your table to get that it that will do something or jewellers roughewhich is even finer that full body tan.
